Charter Signatories

The BC Safety Charter was introduced in November 2011 at the Leading Performance CEO Conference, a day-long conference on health and safety that included leaders from Rio Tinto Alcan, Starbucks, Deere Hitachi Specialty Products, Freybe Gourmet Foods as well as many of the province’s top leaders from the manufacturing sector.

CEOs and business leaders from across BC met to begin the process of addressing the high injury rates in BC manufacturing. 22 Leaders signed their names to the BC Safety Charter and made the commitment to make and keep their own companies healthy and safe and to bring other business leaders on board.
